"Digitmovies is releasing for the absolute first time on CD, the complete version of the OST by Carlo Rustichelli for the film “Made in Italy” (aka “Estos italianos” – “À l'italienne”). Carlo Rustichelli is one of the titans of film music. For "Made in Italy,” he composed one of the best OSTs of his long and fabulous career. Originally RCA had released a promotional LP (SP 8015) containing eleven tracks in mono with a total time of only 22:14 minutes. For our CD (69:01 min) we were able to access the master assembled for the LP and the original mono master tapes from the recording session which allowed us to release the entire soundtrack, including previously unreleased material."
"Digitmovies is releasing the complete edition CD of the OST by Piero Piccioni for the comedy “Pardon, Are You For Or Against?” (original title: “Scusi, lei è favorevole o contrario?” aka “El gran amante”). This CD is the result of passionate and unceasing research, selection and restoration of a soundtrack which absolutely deserved to be rescued and preserved. All of this was possible thanks to the mono master tapes from the original recording session which have survived until today in good condition. Unfortunately, the take of the "Opening Titles" was very damaged and although we tried everything to save it, the sound is not the same quality as the rest of the CD. Originally the label Parade had released an EP single (45PRL 5022) with the songs “Per noi due soli” ("For the two of us") and "Shake and soda." It was not until 1998 that a wide selection of brand new material came out for the first time on CD in Japan, but our edition is the final one."

I am especially delighted by the CD release of Rustichelli´s MADE IN ITALY which formerly was one of the rarest LP albums in the RCA SP series and very hard to get. This is not a run-of-the-mill comedy score, but an absolutely charming, enchanting gem with that wonderful main theme named "Ballata del lavoro" heard in vocal as well as quite diverse instrumental versions throughout the score. There is a lot of variety in this score and also other catchy themes so typical of the composer.
I have been waiting for the CD release of this score for years. Finally!

Just looking at the fabulous cover of the Rustichelli makes me feel good! He is one of my favourites, this will be a definite purchase for me, and possibly the Piccioni too!

Laurent, I have looked on the database of the SACEM website and the Usuelli score 3 MILLIARDS SANS ASCENSEUR is owned by Sidomusic. So it would be something for Stéphane Lerouge - but it is certainly doubtful if any tapes have survived or if Lerouge has any interest to release it. There is no music publisher for this score in Italy.
